Speaking in generalities
The speed of the boys game vs. the girls will be a real eye opener.
Girls tend to have less body control, so you will find a lot more bumps than with the boys. Then again, the boys have a lot less fear of taking a hit or crashing into someone. A joke I have heard is that under Advantage/Disadvantage with boys you decide when to call a foul. Whit girls you decide when NOT to call a foul.
Girls tend to be apologetic if they commit a hard foul (not the flagrant type of hard). Boys are either macho or arrogant about hard fouls.
It is said that white men cant jump. Well it is really true that white girls cant get off of the ground to save their life.
With boys I cant tell you how many times one of them has come up to me after the horn and thank me for doing the game because there were so few times. With the girls it is just the opposite. Heck, in a rec league game a few weeks back I had a girl come up to me after the game and apologize for giving me a hard time about a call. This was one of those leagues where everyone on a team is from the same high school and the HS coach just happens to be in the bleachers or doing the clock/book.
